Once you have the Lens, take it to the Maze of Shakhrami. The Rockwell is located at G-5 of the first map when entering from Tahrongi Canyon. It's easy to find without a map - just follow the left wall. Once you reach the Rockwell, trade the lens to it.

There's some debate over exactly how long it takes to turn the lens into a sphere, but somewhere between 2 minutes and 24 Earth hours later, you can return to withdraw the Divination Sphere by clicking on the Rockwell. You can leave the Maze during this time and come back later.

Return to Kurou-Morou and receive your reward. The reward is just fame and the ability to have your fortune read. If you get your fortune read on three separate days, talking to him on a fourth day will trigger the quest Never to Return.

I did the tarut card quest today, and I noticed I already had this quest started (dunno when I started it). I fought a few ahrimans at about 10 AM EST and got a lens (Xarcarbard (sp?) first eye). I then went to the maze (about 10:30 am est) and threw it in. I tried to retrieve, said it wasnt ready. Came back a half hour later (11:05 AM EST) and got the sphere.

The reward for this quest, other than fame, is the ability to be able to do the sleepga II quest, as stated by MANY of the previous posters. Sleepga II usually goes from 500k-3mil depending on the server. Happy?

Yeah this things takes forever to change I though maybe a game day went had to go do sky stuff game back still not turn after 3 hours. So I logged there will check when I come back in 3 weeks if it hasn't changed in 3 rl weeks I'll be wtf.

i am a level 30warrior/15thief (highest job) i am doing this quest for my blm for when it reaches the level but i have the lens sitting in the pool waited about 1 RL day and about 7 game day and still no orb. what am i to do and what does this mean? please help me. i am on shiva server and online name is shinrah please help

for those slightly lower level people trying to get one, it is also definite that the amrihan's inside of Ranguemont Pass do drop these near the zone to Beaucedine Glacier... I know the do for a fact as I've gotten 2 of them in the past from there during farming runs with a friend for Amrihan tears ^_^

ummm actuall.. there is no such thing as "random" in video games. the game uses a random number generator to generate "random" numbers. These rngs takes lots of factors into acount and come up with a number based on those factors..however if you knew how the rng worked and had knwledge of all the factors (pretty much imposible though) you could predict what the number would be.

as my lots suck i think that there is a char stat that afects you lot generations. course this last part is just my opinon. but no it's not truly "random" course then again, is anything?

You can kill the Floating Eyes in Maze Of Shakrami and get the lens. I just did this quest. Also in the newer strategy guide it also says it only takes one vanadiel day for the divination sphere to come from the lens...

But it hasn't happened and it's been two game days. So square needs to get it together ^ ^

Actually, Square/Enix approved and authorized that strategy guide by Bradygames™, and as per their usual deal haven't authorized any other company to write one, even though Bradygames has systematically shown itself to be either incompetant or just plain careless when it comes to these guides.

I don't blame Square/Enix for, say, this individual mistake, (even though I spent a good hour or so waiting before realizing it wasn't one Vana'diel day, but one Japan day,) but I do blame them for historically entrusting their english guide books to a company that never seems to check up on their information, or even do basic proof reading.

Keep in mind, this is the same guide book that says that thief makes a terrible sub for a DD because thieves wear light armor! =D

i got one of these off a evil eye or something while i was raising my club skill in castle and xarcabard (trying to get 220 club skill for hexa strike). i assume this quest isnt repeateable? (i will be soloing these guys for awhile so i will probably get more of these items). what fame is this gonna affect?

Just assume that each quest is going to give you some level of fame when you complete it. You can check your current fame standings within a city by talking to one certain NPC within each city. For Jeuno, for example, talk to the guy standing by the table just across from the Lower Jeuno magic shop.

And by max fame, I mean that I got the maximum level of fame in Jeuno after finishing that quest. although then again I'm not sure how close I was to start with.

As another quick note, once you get the crystal ball completed and have your fortune given a few times, you eventually have another quest open up when you come back to talk to him. The same holds true for the other fortune teller - once you get all of your tarut cards collected and have your compatability told a few times, eventually a new quest opens up from her as well.

So while the material rewards for this quest in the way of items or gil are, well, nil... you still get nice fame from it (this is the one that took me to max fame actually), plus you have another quest open up later, so it's all good.

Curious, do the ahriman at the rank 2 dragon fight drop these? I've fought Spotter a few times, but never managed to get a steal or a drop off of him. The beastiary on this site does have him labeled as one of the possible creatures to drop them.

No clue honestly. I haven't seen it from him either, and I don't know how they get their item info for this site - they might have just put those ahriman on the list simply because they're ahriman. Dunno.

For the record, the ones I've seen have come from the ahriman actually in the glacier. Haven't seen them come from Floating Eyes, but then I haven't fought that many of them - there are only like 2 or 3 in the one area that I know they pop at, in Ranguemont itself. While trying for your lens you can also pick up Ahriman Tears somewhat less rarely, a decent profit on the side.

2. Contents - Make your own crystal ball from an Ahriman's Lens so that you can ask your fortune for the day.

3. Obtain Arriman's lens from Eye type monsters (float eye, glacier eye, etc) in Ronguemont Pass, then bring it back to Kurou-Morou. Then take it to a holy fountain in Shakrami Maze, and trade it there. Wait for one vana d'iel day, and you can retrieve a Divination Sphere. Bring it back to Kurou-Morou.

Uhmm...I think theres a fame needed to be able to get this quest coz I've done over 60 quest(combined of all regions) and was easily got it.But when I tried to get my friend to get it too(so that i wont die bored killing all the monsters) he didnt get it(I didnt ask him how much quest he has done tho) Same for the Tarot Card quest. Ive go asked for my fame and an NPC told me I'm quite well known.Hope this will help
